I. EVALUATION FACTORS FOR AWARD

The Proposed Task Order will be awarded to the responsible Offeror offering the best value to the Government. To make a determination of Best Value, the Government shall evaluate each Offeror on the following criteria:

Non-Cost/Price Evaluation Factors

Naval Station Norfolk, Norfolk, Virginia Work Order No.: 1656753

Factor 1 – Technical Solution Factor 2 - Past Performance

Factor 1 – Technical Solution:

i. Solicitation Submittal Requirements:

a. The Offeror shall provide a “Technical Approach Narrative” describing the technical solution to the project that meets the requirements of the RFP and that demonstrates the Offeror's ability to successfully perform this project in Naval Station Norfolk, Norfolk, VA. Include the following:

1. Overall management and coordination of simultaneous construction activities in regards to multiple disciplines.

2. Approach to successfully completing the project at Piers 12 and 14 within the requirements of specification section 01 14 00.00 during the project.

3. Approach to avoid project schedule slippage due to material/equipment procurement and delivery delays.

b. Provide a “Labor Force Narrative” describing how the needed skilled labor forces will be provided and maintained throughout the duration of this construction contract for all labor forces at Naval Station, Norfolk, VA. The narrative shall address at a minimum:

1. Securing the needed workforce/skilled work force to work the project.

2. Maintaining the workforce as needed.

3. Design and Construction subcontractors (civil, structural, mechanical, electrical, interiors, and fire protection) and their ability to provide skilled labor.

c. Provide an overall CPM schedule showing the timeline of the proposed designs and construction for all three sites as one project. Schedule narrative shall not exceed two (2) double-sided pages (or four (4) single-sided pages). There are no page restrictions on the project schedule reports, but they must be printed on 11”x17” paper.

(ii) Basis of Evaluation:

The Offerors will be evaluated on the extent to which they demonstrate both a clear understanding of the requirements of the RFP and a realistic plan for performing the necessary work within the permitted time period. An offeror whose schedule proposes a realistic and feasible contract duration shorter than the duration permitted by the RFP will be considered more favorably than those that do not.

The basis of evaluation will also include the extent to which the Offeror’s narratives and CPM schedule demonstrate a realistic plan for handling the complexity of the actual construction work as well as the complexity of working at the pier. The assessment of the Offeror’s narrative and CPM schedule will be used as a means of evaluating the capability of the Offeror to successfully meet the requirements of the

RFP.

Naval Station Norfolk, Norfolk, Virginia Work Order No.: 1656753

An Offeror’s “Technical Approach Narrative” that identifies areas of risk in logistics and resource management and provides a comprehensive contingency plan that addresses mitigation of any identified risks with potential solutions may be considered more favorably than those that do not.

Factor 2 – Past Performance:

(i) Solicitation Submittal Requirements:

Offerors do not need to provide any information under this factor as the Government will base the evaluation on known past performance on task orders awarded under this Multiple Award Contract (MAC). However, Offerors may provide any information on problems encountered and the corrective actions taken on task orders under this MAC. Offerors may also address any adverse past performance issues under this MAC. Explanations shall not exceed two (2) double-sided pages (or four (4) single-sided pages) in total.

(ii) Basis of Evaluation:

This evaluation focuses on how well the Offeror performed on projects under this Multiple Award Contract. More emphasis will be placed on task orders that are more similar to the RFP. The Government reserves the right to obtain information for use in the evaluation of past performance other than projects performed under this Multiple Award Contract from any and all sources including sources outside of the Government. Other sources may include, but are not limited to, past performance information retrieved through the Past Performance Information Retrieval System (PPIRS), inquiries of owner representative(s), Federal Awardee Performance and Integrity Information System (FAPIIS), Electronic Subcontract Reporting System (eSRS), and any other known sources not provided by the Offeror.

The Government will consider the currency and relevance of the information, the source of the information, context of the data, and general trends in the Contractor’s performance. This evaluation is separate and distinct from the Contracting Officer’s responsibility determination. The assessment of the Offeror’s past performance will be used as a means of evaluating the Offeror’s ability to successfully meet the requirements of the RFP.

Offerors lacking past performance information on other task orders under this Multiple Award Contract will not be evaluated favorably or unfavorably in past performance and will receive a Neutral Confidence rating.

II. PRICE

(a) Price Submission:

1. PRICE BINDER: Offeror shall submit one (1) original, marked “Original,” with the following:

Cover page that includes:

Supplementary Instructions to Offerors (Attachment G) Acknowledgement of Amendment(s) (as applicable) (Attachment H) Copy of Representation and Certifications from SAM Bid Bond Completed copy of Provision 52.204-24 (Attachment I)

(b) Basis of Evaluation:

1. The Government will evaluate price based total price. Total price consists of the basic requirements. Analysis will be performed by one or more of the following techniques to ensure a fair and reasonable price:

a. Comparison of proposed prices received in response to the RFP.

b. Comparison of proposed prices with the Independent Government Cost

Estimate (IGCE).

c. Comparison of Proposed prices with available historical information.

d. Comparison of market survey results.

EVALUATION

1. The Government reserves the right to eliminate from consideration for award any or all offers at any time prior to award of the contract; to negotiate with offerors in the competitive range; and to award the contract to the Offeror submitting the lowest price technically acceptable proposal.

2. The Government intends to evaluate proposals and award a contract without discussions with offerors (except clarifications as described in FAR 15.306(a)). The Government reserves the right to conduct discussions if the Contracting Officer later determines them to be necessary. In addition, if the Contracting Officer determines that the number of proposals that would otherwise be in the competitive range exceeds the number at which an efficient competition can be conducted, the Contracting Officer may limit the number of proposals in the competitive range to the greatest number that will permit an efficient competition among the most highly rated proposals.

3. The LPTA process is selected as appropriate for this acquisition because the best value is expected to result from selection of the technically acceptable proposal with the lowest evaluated price.

4. An overall non-price factors rating must be at least “ACCEPTABLE” in order to be eligible for award. An “UNACCEPTABLE” rating in any factor results in the overall non-price factors proposal being rated “UNACCEPTABLE” unless corrected through discussions. An overall non-price factors rating of “UNACCEPTABLE” makes a proposal ineligible for award.

5. In order to permit efficient competition, the Navy will utilize the following methodology.

Proposals will initially be screened for price and placed in order (lowest price to highest price).

The Navy will then evaluate the technical factors of the lowest priced proposal. If the lowest priced proposal is not found to be technically acceptable then the next lowest price proposal shall be evaluated. If that proposal is also not found to be technically acceptable, then the process described will be conducted again as many times as necessary, until such time as the Government identifies a technically acceptable proposal. The Navy will make award to the lowest priced technically

Naval Station Norfolk, Norfolk, Virginia Work Order No.: 1656753 acceptable proposal unless discussions are deemed necessary. However, the Navy, at its sole discretion, reserves the right to increase the number of proposals it will review under this methodology. Accordingly, under this methodology, the technical factors of some proposals may not be evaluated by the Navy. If discussions are deemed necessary by the Contracting Officer, all proposals will be evaluated (both technical and price) for the purpose of establishing a competitive range.
